How to open the an Upsized project from server loc
« on: November 09, 2012, 04:48:57 am »
I have upsized a EAP project to a SQL server successfully. Now I want to open the same project on Enterprise Architect from the server location. I have been able to connect to the Server but not being able to get a  handle to the project which I want to open.

Kindly suggest

The Connect to Server option lets me connect to the DB. But how do I open a particular EAP project that I had transferred to the DB.

For example, I open EA and transfer a project Test.eap to the DB using Tools->DataManagement->Project Transfer option. Now once I have completed the transfer, I want to open the project from the server and make changes.
Is this possible? If yes then how?

I don't think you can connect to the server without selecting a project.
So if you are connected successfully you are automatically connected to a project.

When performing a Project Transfer, all records in the target repository are overwritten.  i.e. Only one EAP file can be transferred into a DBMS repository using the "Project Transfer" dialog.  If you transferred a second EAP file, it will have overwritten the data from the first transfer.

If you wish to import the content from any additional EAP files into this repository, you will need to use XMI Export/Import.

You can create multiple Root nodes in the Project Browser to represent each project in your repository.
